Immediately you realize you have no time to lose. Amanda never appreciated you and if she found you in your current state, who knows what she would do. It's better to hide and wait for your parents to come home.
Having made up your mind, you run towards her bed and duck in the deep shadows beneath.
"Jo-hn, where are you."
You hear your sister's booming voice, calling for you in a rather silly cheerful manner. Carefully looking out from your hiding post, you can see the girls standing in the door - and looking down as if scanning the floor for something lying there. ... Something - or someone? You suddenly feel goose bumps running down your back.
"This is strange, he should be down there somewhere."
"Amanda, maybe it didn't work."
"And where is he then? We all heard him come here. If the spell didn't work, we couldn't have missed him."
Spell? If you are to believe what you are hearing, this would mean Amanda shrank you. But that's just ridiculous, but then again, so is your current size. As you watch Julie and Amanda arguing, Brianna gets down on her knees.
"Maybe he, you know, hid. He might have gotten scared or something."
"Good thinking Brianna. John always thought he was so bright. Hah! He will not trick us this time."
As the girls get down on their knees, you realize that your currently hiding place is rather insufficient if they are really looking for you. Better to hide behind the cupboard or something like that. But you need to be careful not to be noticed while you change your location.
Picking a moment when none of the girls is looking your way, you start to make a break for it.
